I'm sorry, but if someone confronts me with an ignorant point of view and states or infers that I'm wrong because I disagree, I'm going to make it a point to enlighten them. if at the end, they can make an informed decision to still disagree based on the facts... then we agree to disagree. this has happened to me before on matters of Bush's economic policies. I had a friend who favored Bush because he came from a rich family who directly benefited from Bushes policies. I disagreed based on a different set of personal morals and beliefs. that was that.<BR/><BR/>(and cute "United Stupids"... I hadn't heard that one. :) hehe)JStressmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11093511297065444266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11871879.post-1114320873039810532005-04-24T01:34:00.000-04:002005-04-24T01:34:00.000-04:00It's admirable to write a post like that encouragi...It's admirable to write a post like that encouraging debate. That's the great thing about freedom of speech. Just like an asshole, we all have opinions. None more important or right than the other. It only makes a difference in our own personal realm, and the cool thing is that it really doesn't matter one bit in our worlds. I'm worn out from fighting. Right now the climate of the U.S. (United Stupids) is one of religious intolerance and I can tell you this. George W., and all these other Christians, have no room talking about Al Queda as "religious fanatics."<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://kumarihpx.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow">Spitting in a Wishing Well</A>Maverickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06199266262552488748noreply@blogger.com
